WWE RAW's Netflix premiere is expected to be one of the must-see episodes in the company's history, but Cody Rhodes might miss it due to Kevin Owens' doing. However, somebody else can step in for The American Nightmare instead.

At Saturday Night's Main Event, Cody Rhodes defended the Undisputed Championship successfully against Kevin Owens. While the champion was celebrating after the cameras stopped rolling, The Prizefighter returned and brutally attacked him, resulting in The American Nightmare sustaining an axial compression of the cervical spine.

As WWE RAW's Netflix premiere nears, Kevin Owens may be present with the title he stole from Cody. However, one star who can step up to him is John Cena.

As many may know, John Cena is about to embark on his in-ring retirement tour in 2025. He is expected to be present for various shows, including WWE RAW's Netflix premiere. With this in mind, he can confront Kevin for his actions against Cody and question his decisions. Also, the SmackDown star may have already called out his former rival in a past tweet.

Cena and Owens have a long history with each other beginning in 2015 when they feuded for Cena's United States Championship. However, they did bury the hatchet in 2022 when The Cenation Leader teamed up with him against Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn. Rekindling their history and starting a feud can be John's first stop in his tour and will keep Kevin occupied during Rhodes' absence.

John is a 13-time WWE Champion, three-time World Heavyweight Champion, five-time United States Champion, and two-time WWE Tag Team and World Tag Team Champion.


Did John Cena have any reaction after the fallout of Kevin Owens and Cody Rhodes?

Many fans and professionals were shocked and worried about what transpired at the end of Saturday Night's Main Event. At the end of the special show, even Triple H berated The Prizefighter. Interestingly, The Cenation Leader seemingly has some thoughts about what happened.

After The King of Kings confronted Owens, in true John Cena fashion, he posted a captionless Instagram photo of the Winged Eagle Championship Cody Rhodes used at Saturday Night's Main Event. This may be the legend's way of hinting that he has his eyes on the title once he returns or was just simply giving a nod to the iconic design.

It remains to be seen what is next between Cody Rhodes and Kevin Owens in WWE.
